In a dynamic globalized world, the role of education is to keep track of such fast changes and adjust courses in a way to enable students the acquisition of knowledge and skills that are necessary for the future profession. One of the possible means of improving the education of law students the authors see in clinical legal education. Legal clinics are a form of practical class in which the focus is not on theoretical knowledge, yet the students have the opportunity to study law by solving legal problems in groups and under the supervision of the mentor, and often, at the same time, providing legal aid to citizens. This paper shows the evolution of clinical legal education, it analyzes to what extent the involvement in the work of legal clinics trains law student for future profession and everyday life, and problematizes the social role of legal clinics. The purpose of this paper is to examine the quality of Croatian clinical programs and, based on the results of conducted research and examples of good European clinical practices, to set up a model of legal clinic which would enable students the highest-level quality in gaining practical knowledge.
